Mark

Everyone has ambitions. Some large, some small — but how many times can we honestly say we have given all our effort to support those dreams. We believe that with the pull of music, you will always be reminded that your ambitions are within arms reach.

The mind and music work hand and hand. Without getting too complicated, the brain, in itself, has a like or dislike button. The three parts of the brain that react to music are the amygdala, the nucleus accumbens, and the superior temporal gyrus.(It’s okay — we didn’t pronounce them right either.) The first one takes sound and releases dopamine, the other is responsible for goosebumps, and the latter remembers those loving tunes you heard as a child.

Because of this strong music to mind connection, we decided to build a product based around how we react to music. We are Mark. We are a wearable technology that fuels music for your ambition.
